AWS Kill Switch is a Lambda function (and proof of concept client) that an organization can implement in a dedicated "Security" account to give their security engineers the ability to delete IAM roles or apply a highly restrictive service control policy (SCP) on any account in their organization.
The actions you take with this tool are one-way operations. Do not test/experiment in production. Any SCPs applied or IAM roles deleted will remain in this state until manual action is taken to remove the SCP or recreate deleted role and/or policies. Ensure that you have the the ability to reverse these changes and incorporate the appropriate steps in your incident response playbooks.
If you need to lock down and lock out an AWS environment, this will do it for you, but it's the nuclear option.
The Waffle House Index is an informal metric named after the Waffle House restaurant chain to determine the effect of a storm and the likely scale of assistance required for disaster recovery. It was coined by former administrator Craig Fugate of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The metric is unofficially used by FEMA to inform disaster response.
